!±8± Why Are Some Women So Addicted to Soap Operas?

You might not think that many women of today have much time to lounge around in front of the television during the day and watch all of the day time soaps that are on so many of the major networks. However, their ratings show that this is evidently not the always the case. Although the first airing of the soaps are during the day on the major networks there is another channel that airs them at night and they are dedicated solely to soap operas and other serial shows that women love. If they miss them during the day, they can catch them that night or any other night of the week.

What is the big attraction that some women have to these television programs? If they are stay at home moms and have kids in school during the day, it might be the only time they have to sit down and relax and enjoy a few television shows. They might be an older lady that stays at home whose children are already grown and moved out of the home. There are a lot of ladies that enjoy these shows and probably for different reasons.

After all, who would not like to watch the incredible exciting lives that the soap stars portray in the imaginary existence? They have as many lovers as they want, they remarry repeatedly until they get it right or not and they can even come back from the dead a time or two and look just as incredible as they did beforehand. They get to have a lot of money and travel to exotic places and wear the greatest looking clothes, cars and homes. They lead the most seemingly enjoyable lives filled with all sorts of intrigue. It might be be fantasy of many women to get to live like this.

Perhaps it is just because of all of the reasons mentioned that they enjoy these soaps so much. Perhaps they do not have the opportunity in their lives to have very much fun and adventure. One thing is for sure, they never will have any adventure other than that they watch on the television as long as they are sitting there on the sofa. Perhaps if they got outside into the real world and try to drum up some excitement of their own, they would have better things to do than be such big fans of people who only lead imaginary lives. No disrespect intended to the soap opera because they are entertaining, but there is nothing more entertaining than enjoying a real life.
